Hey Mama,

Do you ever feel like you're always the last on your own to-do list? Struggling to carve out some 'me time' while juggling everything and everyone? You're definitely not alone. In this episode, I'm chatting with Shelby — a mom, military wife, personal trainer, and former firefighter as she opens up about her journey to finding real self-care through faith, fitness, and therapy—elements that have been game changers in helping her escape the burnout cycle. We'll dive into how you can start putting yourself first, model healthy behaviors for your kids, and break free from old family patterns—all while keeping your faith front and center. If you're fed up with feeling guilty for needing a break and ready to power up, this talk will motivate you to be at your best for the ones you love most.

Thanks for listening!

XO,

Susan

Hey Mama,

Can I ask you something? How do your mornings usually go? Do you find yourself hitting the snooze button one too many times, only to wake up in a mad rush trying to get everyone out the door? Are you already feeling drained before the day even begins, with your patience running thin and your stress levels through the roof?

You’re not alone. I’ve been there—scrambling to get the kids dressed, lunches packed, and somehow fit in a half-decent breakfast. It feels like no matter how hard you try, the morning chaos is just too much to handle. And let’s be real, that stress sticks with you all day.

But what if I told you there’s a way to flip the script? What if you could start your day with a sense of control and calmness — no matter how many little feet are running around your house? Sounds like a dream, right?

Well, today’s episode is all about turning that dream into reality. I’m sharing 4 game-changing tips that transformed my chaotic mornings into moments of peace and intention. Trust me, these are lifelines for any mom feeling overwhelmed and exhausted before the sun even comes up.

So if you’re ready to say goodbye to the morning madness and hello to a more peaceful, productive start to your day, stay tuned. We’re about to change all of that, right here, right now.

Thanks for listening!

Hey Mama,

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or unsure if you're doing enough? If you're struggling to find balance, prioritize self-care, or simply need some encouragement, this episode is for you.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Morgan, a fellow homeschooling mom of three littles from Tennessee, and we got to dive deep into the topic of self-care vs. self-sabotage and how prioritizing healthy habits can transform your family life. 

Being new to homeschooling myself, I was searching for help and discovered Morgan through her amazing Homeschool With Excellence Course. I loved that the foundation of everything in her course was built around prioritizing healthy habits and I love that Morgan is passionate about helping homeschool moms find their sweet spot so they can thrive as the heart of their home.

This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories that will inspire you to create a balanced home life.

XO,

Susan
